Thanks a lot, it helps me with the "400 URL must be absolute" error. I'm not a programmer, let alone a "PerlMonk". I have to get my knowledge from what I can find on the internet and that is not always clear.

But... now i get a "401 Unauthorized" error. Because I know now the URL must be OK and the user and password are OK, the problem must be the realm (?). I got the in de sub given realm with the script:

lwp-request -e http://88.159.57.235/roots/lines/wielinga/wie-aaa/wie-s
+le/wie-hee/wie-bru/pien.htm

with the response:

Is there an other way to get the right realm?
